Hi!
I've been dancing around the idea of getting a scope for about a year now. I've purchased some 10x50 binos, downloaded some star charts, picked up some books and gone out on a fair few viewing sessions.
It's time for me to bite the bullet and go buy a telescope.
I'm thinking a GSO Dob is the right scope for me but I'm unsure on the size. I want a size that is easy to carry around but still want some spectacular views. I was thinking a 10" but maybe this is a little too big? I've been drooling over the 12", but that thing is a monster! I feel that if I need to use a trolley to lug the thing around I'll lose interest pretty quick (sigh factor)
.
Maybe an 8" is the way to go? Price isn't really an issue. I just want a good beginners size!
Thanks!
